Lemmy is booming

I have never before received so many reactions and comments on my Lemmy posts before, so it's obvious to see, that there are many new members here.
Welcome to all the new! And I'm looking forward to see more of you here.
Cheers!

I think so. There was also jeremmy.ml but it doesn't seem to be reachable right now.

Thank you :) I remember seeing a solarpunk and another science server in the list but haven't seen anything from those in my all feed either.

It can be because no one on your instance is following communities from over there. There needs to be at least one follower of a topic/community before posts are pulled to the instance you're on.

So if you want to follow a community on another instance which your own instance doesn't know about, take the URL of the community from the remote instance and put it in the search field on your own instance and then you can follow it. After that new posts from there will show up

Thanks a lot! I'm going to try this out now. I wish there was a sidebar or something that explained some gotchas like this.

Yeah that would indeed be helpful.
